1. Make sure that you always have your kite
under control, that it is always in good con-
dition, that it is properly assembled, that
the lines are in good condition and carefully
connected to the kite and handles or straps.
2. Never fly your kite over the given
windspeed. You will overstrain the material
and can easily lose control of the kite, which
could endanger bystanders.
3. Never fly your kite on busy fields or
beaches, or in nature protection areas. By-
standers often have no idea how dangerous
a falling kite can be!
4. Onlookers should stand behind the pilot for
maximum safety!
5. Keep your distance from other sport kite
pilots. Lines under tension can cut each
other as they are as sharp as knives!
6. Never fly in places where others may be an-
noyed or feel threatened by your kiteflying.
7. Never fly in thunderstorms or when a storm
is brewing. Never fly near high voltage ca-
bles, busy roads or airfields. This presents a
danger to life and limb!
8. There are different permitted line lengthes.
If in doubt, ask your local authorities.
9. Never fly in national preserved areas.
10. Do not leave any waste line or bits of rods
or other waste at the flying ground. This
helps to protect the environment, avoids
trouble and protects the good reputation of
the kite pilots.
Flying traction kites and the related sports,
for example, buggying, are among extreme
sports and should be participated in with
the appropriate respect. Inappropriate use of
the material can lead to serious or even fatal
injuries!
This makes it all the more important that you
read and follow the operating instructions and
the safety rules!
